Hickey ([[Christopher Walken]]) uses an [[Thompson Submachine Gun#M1928/M1928A1 Thompson|M1928 Thompson]] submachine gun fitted with a 50 round drum several times in the film to spit out ammo at people when he sees fit (he seems to enjoy firing the gun inside around people for no reason). Some of Strozzi and Doyle's men can be seen using them too. Some of the men who massacre the convoy are also seen using M1928s, although they are fitted with 30 round magazines.

Last Man Standing is a 1996 action drama directed by Walter Hill and starring Bruce Willis as John Smith, a gunslinger-for-hire during the Prohibition era who stumbles upon a ongoing war between the Irish and Italian Mafia in a small Texas town near the Mexico border. The film was inspired by the Japanese samurai film Yojimbo.
The following weapons were used in the film Last Man Standing (1996):
John Smith (Bruce Willis) keeps two M1911A1s with diamond checker grips in crossdraw shoulder holsters and dual-wields the pistols several times in the film. Hickey (Christopher Walken) also uses an M1911A1 with bolo wood grips as his sidearm. This film obviously is not trying to win the award for gun realism as Smith tends to fire up to 40 rounds from his .45s in each scene before reloading (when their capacities are seven rounds plus one in the chamber). The guns are also shown capable of sending people flying when they are barraged by them. Also, as Bruce Willis is left-handed, the left 1911 has an extended slide release so his index finger can easily release the slide.
One of the cops shooting up the convoy uses a Colt New Service. The large frame and hooked front sight distinguish it from the Official Police models used more frequently in the film.
The bartender Joe Monday (William Sanderson) keeps a Colt Walker 1847 percussion revolver as his self defense weapon in the film and uses it during the final confrontation, amazed that it actually fired (despite how new it actually looks).
Hickey (Christopher Walken) uses an M1928 Thompson submachine gun fitted with a 50 round drum several times in the film to spit out ammo at people when he sees fit. One notable scene shows that despite recklessly shooting, Hickey is also able to in fact NOT hit anyone. Some of Strozzi and Doyle's men can be seen using them too. Some of the men who massacre the convoy are also seen using M1928s, although they are fitted with 30 round magazines.
One of the men who massacres the truck convoy uses an Browning Automatic Rifle dressed up as a Colt Monitor. One of Doyle's men is also seen using an Colt Monitor when they massacre the Strozzis as they flee the burning building.
